Bacterial cultures werecentrifuged and the pellets were washed (3 times) and were suspended <strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong> AFB1 solution with f<strong>in</strong>al concentration of 1-1.5×10 10 CFU/ml. thebacterial solutions were <strong>in</strong>cubated for 2 h at 37°C. The cell freesupernatants samples were analyzed with a reverse phase highperformanceliquid chromatography (HPLC) as well as the Enzyme L<strong>in</strong>kedImmunosorbent Assay (ELISA).Results: The results showed that the AFB1 b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g capacity of stra<strong>in</strong>s wasstra<strong>in</strong> dependent. The stra<strong>in</strong>s were observed to possess variable AFB2-b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g ability <strong>in</strong> the range from 8 to 63%. Most efficient b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g of AFB1was observed byL.plantarumTD14, andL.caseiTD15. The differences <strong>in</strong>the b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g activities of AFB1 between the stra<strong>in</strong>s showed statisticalsignificance (p>0.05). Our results <strong>in</strong>dicated the protective ability of these<strong>in</strong>digenous probiotic stra<strong>in</strong>s aga<strong>in</strong>st AFB1as well as their beneficial healtheffects. It is well documented that the AFB1 detoxification by thesebacteria <strong>in</strong>volves sequestration by b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g the tox<strong>in</strong> to the bacterial cellwall.

Zwerschke*, M. Jahn, D. JahnInst. f. Microbiologie, AG Jahn, Braunschweig, GermanyHeme is an important tetrapyrrole because of its function as a cofactor <strong>in</strong>several prote<strong>in</strong>s which are l<strong>in</strong>ked to fundamental biological processes likerespiration, photosynthesis, the metabolism and transport of oxygen (Layeret al, 2010). The biosynthesis of heme is a well studied process,nevertheless there are bacteria which obviously lack one or more of theknown enzymes for this pathway and are still able to synthesize heme. Forat least three steps dur<strong>in</strong>g the heme formation it is known that there existother enzymes responsible for catalysis (Boynton et al, 2011). One of theseenzymes is the protoporphyr<strong>in</strong>ogen IX oxidase (PPO). PPO oxidizesprotoporphyr<strong>in</strong>ogen IX to protoporphyr<strong>in</strong> IX which is the penultimate step<strong>in</strong> the heme biosynthetic pathway (Layer et al, 2010). Until today noknown PPO-gene has been identified for Pseudomonas aerug<strong>in</strong>osa. Ourapproach was to isolate the oxygen-dependent PPO-gene from P.aerug<strong>in</strong>osa by complementation of an Escherichia coli PPO mutant with aP. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa ATCC 17933 gene library. UV/Vis and fluorescence spectrawere recorded via high pressure liquid chromatography to measure thelevel of heme <strong>in</strong> apparently positive clones. Complementary genes fromclones with high heme levels were sequenced. To <strong>in</strong>vestigate so obta<strong>in</strong>edputative PPO we will knock out these genes <strong>in</strong> P. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa andcomplement the phenotype with the E. coli PPO (hemG). Furthermore, wewill overproduce the putative P. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa PPO for their biochemicalcharacterization.Layer G., Reichelt J., Jahn D. and He<strong>in</strong>z D.

Osipenkov, W. Wohlleben, G. MuthUniversität Tüb<strong>in</strong>gen, Mikrobiologie/Biotechnologie, Tüb<strong>in</strong>gen, GermanyThe order Act<strong>in</strong>omycetales consists of high G+C Gram-positive bacteriaof which many species form a branch<strong>in</strong>g mycelium by apical tip extension.Act<strong>in</strong>omycetes, <strong>in</strong> particular the genus Streptomyces, are the mostimportant source of biologically active microbial products, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>gantibiotics. As antibiotic producers, the act<strong>in</strong>omycetes represent the naturalreservoir of resistance genes that are transferred to other bacteria byhorizontal gene transfer (HGT).The availability of genomic sequences of many act<strong>in</strong>omycetes revealed thepresence of multiple <strong>in</strong>tegrative chromosomal elements (ICE). ICE´s arecharacterized by their prophage-like mode of ma<strong>in</strong>tenance as part of thechromosome, and their ability to excise, to promote their transfer to a newhost, and to <strong>in</strong>tegrate <strong>in</strong>to the host genome by site specific recomb<strong>in</strong>ation.S<strong>in</strong>ce ICE´s normally dis<strong>in</strong>tegrate only prior to conjugation, which isregulated by unknown factors, such elements are very difficult to isolateby alkal<strong>in</strong>e lysis.Here we show that it is possible to amplify novel ICE´s from differentStreptomyces stra<strong>in</strong>s us<strong>in</strong>g random hexamer primers and the Phi29 DNApolymerase. Sequence analysis of subcloned DNA fragments allows therapid characterization of the newly isolated Streptomyces ICE´s.The presented work was done as part of the “MikrobiologischesGroßpraktikum/Biotechnologie ( 1 ) and a bachelor thesis ( 2 ).OTP030A highly efficient Staphylococcus carnosus mutant selectionsystem based on suicidal bacterioc<strong>in</strong> activationB. Krismer*, M. Nega, G. Thumm, F. Götz, A. PeschelUniversity of Tueb<strong>in</strong>gen, IMIT, Tueb<strong>in</strong>gen, GermanyStra<strong>in</strong>s from various staphylococcal species produce bacterioc<strong>in</strong> peptides,which are thought to play important roles <strong>in</strong> bacterial competition andoffer <strong>in</strong>terest<strong>in</strong>g biotechnological avenues. Many bacterioc<strong>in</strong>s are secretedas <strong>in</strong>active pre-peptides with subsequent activation by specific proteolyticcleavage. By deletion of the protease gene gdmP <strong>in</strong> Staphylococcusgall<strong>in</strong>arum Tü3928, which produces of the highly active lanthion<strong>in</strong>econta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>gbacterioc<strong>in</strong> galliderm<strong>in</strong> (lantibiotic), a stra<strong>in</strong> was createdproduc<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>active pre-galliderm<strong>in</strong>. On this basis a new suicidal mutantselection system <strong>in</strong> the food-grade bacterium Staphylococcus carnosus wasdeveloped. Whereas pre-galliderm<strong>in</strong> was <strong>in</strong>active aga<strong>in</strong>st S. carnosus, itexerted potent bactericidal activity toward GdmP-secret<strong>in</strong>g S. carnosusstra<strong>in</strong>s. To take advantage of this effect gdmP was cloned <strong>in</strong> plasmidvectors used for random transposon mutagenesis or targeted allelicreplacement of chromosomal genes. Both mutagenesis strategies rely onrare recomb<strong>in</strong>ation events and it has rema<strong>in</strong>ed difficult and laborious toidentify mutants among a vast majority of bacterial clones that still conta<strong>in</strong>the delivery vectors. The gdmP-express<strong>in</strong>g plasmids pGS1 and pGS2enabled very fast, easy, and reliable identification of transposon or genereplacement mutants, respectively. Mutant selection <strong>in</strong> the presence of pregalliderm<strong>in</strong>caused suicidal <strong>in</strong>activation of all clones that had reta<strong>in</strong>ed theplasmids and allowed only growth of plasmid cured mutants. Efficiency ofmutant identification was several magnitudes higher compared to standardscreen<strong>in</strong>g for the absence of plasmid-encoded antibiotic resistance markersand reached 100% specificity. Thus, the new pre-galliderm<strong>in</strong> based mutantselection system represents a substantial improvement of staphylococcalmutagenesis methodology.OTP031Reductive dechlor<strong>in</strong>ation <strong>in</strong> Desulfitobacterium hafniense Y51:Impact of vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 on pceA gene stability and expressionA. Re<strong>in</strong>hold*, T. Schubert, G. DiekertFriedrich-Schiller-University, Institute for Microbiology, Department ofApplied and Ecological Microbiology, Jena, GermanyDesulfitobacterium hafniense Y51 is a strictly anaerobic, gram-positivebacterium, which is able to grow with aliphatic chlor<strong>in</strong>ated compounds,such as tetrachloroethene (PCE), as term<strong>in</strong>al electron acceptors. PCE isreductively dechlor<strong>in</strong>ated to cis-1,2-dichloroethene. The key enzyme is thePCE reductive dehalogenase, a corr<strong>in</strong>oid cofactor and iron-sulfur clusterconta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g prote<strong>in</strong>. All enzymes required for de novo corr<strong>in</strong>oid cofactorbiosynthesis are encoded <strong>in</strong> the genome of D. hafniense Y51 (1). The geneencod<strong>in</strong>g the PCE reductive dehalogenase, pceA, is organized <strong>in</strong> thepceABCT gene cluster. The cluster is flanked by two almost identical<strong>in</strong>sertion sequences <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g transposase genes. The excision of the pcegene cluster from the genome of D. hafniense Y51 can occur (2).In this study we <strong>in</strong>vestigated the impact of vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 added to themedium on the transposition of the pceA gene. In the presence of thegrowth substrate PCE the pceA gene rema<strong>in</strong>s stable <strong>in</strong> D. hafniense Y51genome whether or not vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 was added to the culture. When cellswere cultivated on fumarate <strong>in</strong>stead of PCE and vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 was omittedfrom the medium, the number of pceA genes per culture decreased rapidly.Interest<strong>in</strong>gly, this effect is strongly delayed when external vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 wasprovided (long-term effect).To acquire the data presented here, cells repeatedly grown on the differentmedia compositions were analysed for the number of pceA genes us<strong>in</strong>gquantitative PCR (qPCR), for the pceA transcript level us<strong>in</strong>g reversetranscription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), for the PceA enzyme activityand the amount of PceA prote<strong>in</strong> us<strong>in</strong>g specific antibodies. In parallel, theexpression of vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 biosynthesis genes was exam<strong>in</strong>ed. Based on theresults of this survey a positive effect of vitam<strong>in</strong> B 12 on the pceA genestability and expression <strong>in</strong> D. hafniense Y51 is discussed.(1) Nonaka H. et al.

E<strong>in</strong>sle 11 Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, Institut für Organische Chemie undBiochemie, Freiburg, Germany2 Karlsruher Institut für Technologie, Molekulare Mikrobiologie, Karlsruhe,Germany3 Universität Konstanz , Dept. of Biology, Konstanz, GermanyThe genera Pseudomonas and Paracoccus <strong>in</strong>clude the most commonlyisolated denitrify<strong>in</strong>g bacteria from soils and aquatic sediments and mayrepresent the most active denitrifiers <strong>in</strong> natural environments 3 .Denitrification is the dissimilatory reduction from the ionic oxides (nitrateand nitrite) to the gaseous oxides nitric oxide and nitrous oxide. Thesubsequent two-electron reduction of nitrous oxide to d<strong>in</strong>itrogen is thef<strong>in</strong>al step <strong>in</strong> the denitrification process 4 . Nitrous oxide is <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong>atmospheric reactions and its accumulation <strong>in</strong> the stratosphere leads todepletion of ozone.Nitrous oxide reductase, NosZ, is a dimeric multi-copper prote<strong>in</strong>, with 638residues per subunit (74 kDa) and the reported copper content depends onthe purification strategy. Because of the high sensitivity of the enzymetoward dioxygen, the clusters of the soluble periplasmic enzyme degradeand it therefore loses its activity under aerobic conditions. In literature,several different forms were described, that can be dist<strong>in</strong>guished by theirtypical absorption and EPR spectra. The active purple form of the enzymecarries the well-characterized mixed-valent b<strong>in</strong>uclear Cu A centre and thetetranuclear Cu Z site, that was first described as a unique [4Cu:2S] centre 1for Pseudomonas stutzeri, <strong>in</strong>stead of the [4Cu:S] cluster 4 found previously.This newly described cluster was observed after the isolation andcrystallization under the exclusion of dioxygen 2 . In nitrous oxide reductasethe substrate N 2O is bound between the two copper centres, it is activatedby side-on b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g at Cu Z, so that then electrons can be transferred directlyfrom Cu A to N 2O. Several accessory prote<strong>in</strong>s were identified for thebiogenesis of active N 2O reductase, with predicted functions as Cuchaperones or ABC transporters. To date the exact steps of clusterbiogenesis and the mechanistic details of N 2O reduction are still unknown.OTP034Key enzymes of fuel oxygenate ether degradationJ. Schuster*, F. Schäfer, N. Yaneva, T. Rohwerder, R.H. Müller, H. HarmsHelmholtz Centre for Environmental Research GmbH - UFZ , Departmentof Environmental Microbiology , Leipzig, GermanyThe extensive use of methyl-tert-butyl and tert-amyl methyl ether (MTBEand TAME, respectively) as gasol<strong>in</strong>e additives has resulted <strong>in</strong> persistentgroundwater contam<strong>in</strong>ation due to their recalcitrance aga<strong>in</strong>st microbialattack. However, we were able to isolate the bacterial stra<strong>in</strong> Aqu<strong>in</strong>colatertiaricarbonis L108 from an MTBE-contam<strong>in</strong>ated aquifer (Leuna,Germany) which can grow well on all k<strong>in</strong>ds of fuel oxygenate ethers ass<strong>in</strong>gle source of carbon and energy [1]. We have now elucidated theunderly<strong>in</strong>g degradation pathways by generat<strong>in</strong>g gene knockoutsspecifically affect<strong>in</strong>g expression of key enzymatic steps. In addition,central metabolites of ether catabolism were identified. Initial degradationproceeds via specific hydroxylation by the EthABCD monooxygenasesystem result<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the formation of tert-butyl or tert-amyl alcohol (TBAor TAA). Degradation of the latter is ma<strong>in</strong>ly catalyzed by themonooxygenase MdpJ. TBA is hydroxylated to 2-methylpropan-1,2-diol,while TAA is desaturated to the hemiterpene 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol. In aside reaction, TBA and TAA are dehydrated to the correspond<strong>in</strong>g alkenes,i. e. isobutene and isoamylene isomers, by a not yet characterizedenzymatic step [2]. The 2-methylpropan-1,2-diol is oxidized further to 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid, which is activated to the correspond<strong>in</strong>g CoA esterand isomerized to the common metabolite 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA by aspecific cobalam<strong>in</strong>-dependent acyl-CoA mutase [1]. 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, on the other hand, is degraded via a hemiterpenic primary alcohol andthe correspond<strong>in</strong>g aldehyde and carboxylic acid, l<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g TAA degradationwith the biot<strong>in</strong>-dependent catabolism of the am<strong>in</strong>o acid leuc<strong>in</strong>e [3].T.

Torres-MonroyJacobs University Bremen, Molecular Life Science Research Center,Bremen, GermanyAggregation of diatoms is an important process <strong>in</strong> mar<strong>in</strong>e ecosystemslead<strong>in</strong>g to the settl<strong>in</strong>g of particulate organic carbon predom<strong>in</strong>antly <strong>in</strong> theform of mar<strong>in</strong>e snow. Exudation products of phytoplankton formtransparent exopolymer particles (TEP), which act as adhesives for particleaggregation. Heterotrophic bacteria <strong>in</strong>teract<strong>in</strong>g with phytoplankton may<strong>in</strong>fluence TEP formation and phytoplankton aggregation. This bacterialimpact has not been explored <strong>in</strong> detail. We hypothesized that bacteriaattach<strong>in</strong>g to Thalassiosira weissflogii might <strong>in</strong>teract <strong>in</strong> a yet-to-bedeterm<strong>in</strong>ed manner, which could impact TEP formation and aggregateabundance. The role of <strong>in</strong>dividual T. weissflogii-attach<strong>in</strong>g and free-liv<strong>in</strong>gnew bacterial isolates for TEP production and diatom aggregation was<strong>in</strong>vestigated <strong>in</strong> vitro. T. weissflogii did not aggregate <strong>in</strong> axenic culture, andstrik<strong>in</strong>g differences <strong>in</strong> aggregation dynamics and TEP abundance wereobserved when diatom cultures were <strong>in</strong>oculated with either diatomattach<strong>in</strong>g,i.e. Mar<strong>in</strong>obacter adhaerens HP15, or free-liv<strong>in</strong>g bacteria. Thedata <strong>in</strong>dicated that free-liv<strong>in</strong>g bacteria may not <strong>in</strong>fluence aggregationwhereas bacteria such as M. adhaerens HP15 may <strong>in</strong>crease aggregateformation. Interest<strong>in</strong>gly, photosynthetically <strong>in</strong>activated T. weissflogii cellsdid not aggregate regardless of the presence of bacteria. Comparison ofaggregate formation, TEP production, aggregate s<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g velocity, and solidhydrated density revealed remarkable differences. Both, photosyntheticallyactive T. weissflogii and specific diatom-attach<strong>in</strong>g bacteria were requiredfor aggregation. It was concluded that <strong>in</strong>teractions between heterotrophicbacteria and diatoms <strong>in</strong>creased aggregate formation and particle s<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>gand thus may enhance the efficiency of the biological pump. M. adhaerensHP15 has become a genetically accessible model organism. Successfulsite-directed and transposon mutageneses, expression or reporter genes,and full access to the genome sequence of HP15 made this organism anideal model stra<strong>in</strong> to conduct the molecular dissection of the diatombacteria<strong>in</strong>teraction at the cell-to-cell level.OTP036Will be presented as OTV032!OTP037Carbon stable-isotope fractionation of brom<strong>in</strong>ated ethenes bySulfurospirillum multivoransA. Woods*, I. NijenhuisHelmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research-UFZ, IsotopeBiogeochemistry, Leipzig, GermanyMicrobial dehalogenation has been <strong>in</strong>vestigated as a viable remediationstrategy for contam<strong>in</strong>ated field sites, as several bacterial species have beenl<strong>in</strong>ked with biotransformation processes <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g reductivedehalogenation. Compound specific isotope analysis (CSIA) may be aneffective tool for monitor<strong>in</strong>g reductive dehalogenation activity <strong>in</strong> theenvironment if dist<strong>in</strong>ct fractionation patterns emerge dur<strong>in</strong>gbiodegradation studies <strong>in</strong> the laboratory. While the biodegradationpotential of chlor<strong>in</strong>ated ethenes has been extensively characterized, verylittle is known as regards biotransformation of brom<strong>in</strong>ated ethenes.However, certa<strong>in</strong> bacterial stra<strong>in</strong>s, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g Sulfurospirillum multivoransand Desulfitobacterium sp. stra<strong>in</strong> PCE-S, which are capable of reductivedechlor<strong>in</strong>ation of tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE) to1,2-dichloroethene (1,2-DCE), have also been shown to effectivelydebrom<strong>in</strong>ate tribromoethene (TBE) and 1,2-dibromoethene (1,2-DBE)under similar conditions [1].Carbon stable-isotope fractionation had previously been determ<strong>in</strong>ed dur<strong>in</strong>greductive dechlor<strong>in</strong>ation of PCE and TCE by S. multivorans andDesulfitobacterium sp. stra<strong>in</strong> PCE-S [2], but had not been tested for thecorrespond<strong>in</strong>g brom<strong>in</strong>ated compounds. This study aims to <strong>in</strong>vestigate thecarbon-isotope fractionation of TBE and 1,2-DBE dur<strong>in</strong>g reductivedebrom<strong>in</strong>ation by crude extracts of S. multivorans, and to evaluate theseresults aga<strong>in</strong>st those for their chlor<strong>in</strong>ated analogs. Prelim<strong>in</strong>ary results showbrom<strong>in</strong>ated ethene fractionation patterns as similar to those for chlor<strong>in</strong>atedethenes by each stra<strong>in</strong>, but to a lesser extent. In the case of TBE,fractionation was nearly negligible, contrast<strong>in</strong>g with significantfractionation observed for TCE. However, fractionation observed dur<strong>in</strong>greductive debrom<strong>in</strong>ation of 1,2-DBE, while less than that observed for 1,2-DCE, is significant, and suggests the potential use of CSIA for <strong>in</strong> situassessments of reductive debrom<strong>in</strong>ation. To further explore this potential,more studies are required to <strong>in</strong>vestigate fractionation occurr<strong>in</strong>g with otherstra<strong>in</strong>s and likewise, with chlor<strong>in</strong>ated ethenes.BIOspektrum | Tagungsband <strong>2012</strong>
